Description

Looking down into a rock-cut tomb chamber with its curved rock walls around the opening. Many clay vessels lie scattered over the soil floor: round-bodied jugs, handled juglets, bowls and several small pale vessels. Some stand upright and others lie on their sides, with the soil around them largely undisturbed.

Description, scan 2: A rock-cut tomb chamber seen from above, its floor covered with many pottery vessels still lying where they were found. Jugs, juglets and bowls, some with handles and broken rims, lie scattered across the soil, with a larger two-handled vessel at the lower right. The rough rock walls curve overhead, and pale excavated earth fills the foreground.
